By the way, study after study has shown a u shaped life expectancy vs bmi, with peak life expectancy at bmi around 28. Higher BMI around 30 is even better if you have a chronic illness like heart disease, diabetes, lung disease, cancer etc.

He updated the timeline to 10-15 years in 2023. That is like an eternity. Even artists, lawyers, programmers are scared about being replaced now in that time frame. We might have humanoid robots in 15 years.

If $100 doesn’t mean much to you, it probably isn’t 100% of your portfolio. Consider future cash flow from your labor in your portfolio.

What do you mean “as always”… That sounds like ai generated nonsense. This is where ai currently falls down. It can’t do new analysis.

India is just poorer. Corruption is cheaper for the public than higher pay for cops. same reason irs doesn’t enforce taxes on tips in America.

Personal meals are 100% employee income. Business meals are 50% employee income and 50% business expense. Which is the real issue. If nsa / irs / sec catches Facebook under policing , they will take a pound of flesh from Facebo

Sometimes it’s misallocated resources of time and energy, a la , financial crisis of 2008. I recently started walking and lifting a lot, then added on a bunch of basketball, ping pong, swimming lessons. I ended up falling behind on non fi

I find it hard to believe that only 10% of software developer graduates are unemployable. 90% unemployment is ridiculous. why would the graduates waste so much time with a 10% chance of employment.

It might also be related to irs audits. even business meals are only 50% tax deductible. Personal items just aren’t. They are income and irs would want its share.

You should be suspicious of definitions where the average is abnormal. If 75% of people are over weight, maybe the definition of overweight is wrong. These definitions are arbitrary anyway. In india they define a bmi of 25 as obese. The

I feel like measuring fertility rates before women finish menopause is misleading and underestimates projected fertility rate. If you look at actually fertility rates at menopause, it’s close to 3, well above replacement: https:/&#x

It’s complicated. You need blood pressure to live… Too low heart rate can also be a problem. talk to your cardiologist about your specifics. At the population level, the guidelines have backed off over the last 20 years. What’s normal now

If you display the top 1000 or even 10000, then it will sort those. For example: https://hn.garglet.com/leaders?page=1&sort_by=avg_karma&page... But yes, sorting can / will be improved.
